Historical note: Comb graves are a type of covered grave that are often called "tent graves." The length of the grave was covered by rocks or other materials that look like the gabled roof or comb of a building. They were popular in the 19th and early 20th centuries. It is conjectured that these graves were covered to protect them from either weather or animals, or perhaps both. While comb graves can be found in other southern states, the Cumberland Plateau in Tennessee has the highest concentration of these types of graves.

Louet hand cards are made of tulip wood, a Dutch Poplar variety. These light weighted hand cards have a curved back and ergonomic handles that fit comfortably in your hands. The 19 x 10 cm (7 1/2” x 4”) hand cards are available in fine (46 teeth per inch) and extra fine cloth (cotton carders, 65 teeth per inch); the 10 x 10 cm (4” x 4”) hand cards are only available in extra fine cloth. The flicker (6 x 10 cm, 2 3/8” x 4”) is a handy tool used to tease locks of fiber in preparation for spinning. Louet also makes single row and double row mini-combs, both 6.5 cm (2 1/2”) wide. These handy tools are a unique device which can be used for de-hairing and fine fiber combing. They are made of ash with a lacquer finish.

A very eccentric and animated street preacher. When I asked to photo him, he wanted to comb his hair first! He said he was an Army veteran (cavalry).

So it turns out it's not a good idea to put a miller feeder on top of a half-full box. Instead of taking the syrup down to the brood box, they built this.

Not a new bird, but certainly a 'first' photo.

I took a number of shots of this bird as it slowly trotted across the lily pads towards me, but it decided, whilst still not close enough for my camera, that it didn't really want its photo taken :-( Best shot I got.

The comb fell off the 4th bar when I tried to straighten it. Too little attachment to bear the straightening.
